Rating: Summary: A Time For Dancing One Of The Best Books Ever Written Review: I just finished the book about 10 minutes ago. If you don't have a box of kleenex you need to get one before you get to the second half of the book. Most authors don't quite reach down into the value of friendship as this one has. You even come to almost feel what the characters are feeling. It also makes you think about your own friends and how much they mean to you. It did with me. It makes me think of my "one-and-only" and makes me wonder what I'd do without her. One of the best books I've read in a long time and if you love sappy books that make you cry while you're reading it, then add this to your collection. I'm looking forward to more books by her. But like I said, keep a box of kleenex handy. You're DEFINATELY going to need it.

This emotional and touching story will grasp the reader's attention from the very first page and never let go until the whole story is carved into our memory forever. I will definitely recommend this book to everyone and I also give this novel a rating of 5/5. One reason why this is a great novel is the author's effective use of words. The author's fabulous descriptions had led me to tears especially near the ending when Samantha says goodbye to Juliana who was lying in the hospital bed, lifeless. Davida Wills Hurwin allows the reader to picture the character's situation really well. To understand how effective her words are, then you must read this novel. Another thing that is done well in this book is the climax held within this novel. The climax occurs during the time when Juliana's whole life changes dramatically. She goes through depression, everything is falling apart, and most important of all, she could not dance the way she use to. This is a good place for the climax because Juliana's whole life was change the minute the doctor told her she was diagnosed with cancer. Numerous readers find this book, A Time for Dancing, hard to put down. Losing hope, going through the battle of cancer, friendship, and death, this novel will change your opinions about this world.
